1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The Fed's potential rate - cut in September and the weakening US dollar are favorable for risk assets, but the uncertainty of the Fed's personnel changes may disrupt market risk appetite. The domestic economy has the basis to achieve the annual growth target, and mild stimulus measures are expected to be introduced [2][87]. - Zinc concentrate supply is steadily recovering, with the growth of domestic ore processing fees slowing down and the acceleration of the recovery of imported ore processing fees. In September, due to more refinery maintenance plans, refined zinc production is expected to decrease by 2.62% to 60.98 tons, and zinc ingot imports still face large losses [2][87]. - Zinc demand is differentiated. Infrastructure construction is expected to speed up, and the issuance of the third batch of ultra - long - term special treasury bonds supports the domestic sales of durable goods. The delay of Sino - US tariff policies eases the export pressure of related products, and the concentrated grid - connection of deep - sea projects promotes the development of the wind power industry. However, the real estate market is weak, photovoltaic demand is overdrawn, and galvanized sheets are affected by anti - dumping, which will drag down consumption [2][87]. - Overall, the Fed's potential rate - cut and domestic economic support policies provide support for zinc prices. With the reduction of supply pressure and the approaching of the traditional peak demand season, zinc prices are expected to stabilize and rebound in September. Attention should be paid to whether the improvement in consumption can be effectively realized [2][87][88] 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs 3.1 Zinc Market Review - In August, the main contract price of Shanghai zinc fluctuated in a narrow range at a low level, with a monthly decline of 0.92%. London zinc's center of gravity moved slightly upward, with a monthly increase of 1.88% [6]. 3.2 Macroeconomic Analysis 3.2.1 US Situation - The US economy is mixed. Employment is cooling, inflation is moderate, and the Fed's stance has turned dovish. The probability of a rate cut in September is high, and the US dollar is in a weak position, which is favorable for risk assets. However, the uncertainty of the Fed's personnel changes will affect market risk appetite [8][9][10]. 3.2.2 Eurozone Situation - The eurozone's manufacturing prosperity is continuously recovering, inflation is stable, and the employment market is improving. The ECB is expected to keep interest rates unchanged in September, but the political crisis in France may put pressure on the euro [11][13]. 3.2.3 Domestic Situation - Most domestic economic indicators slowed down in July, but exports showed strong resilience. The annual growth target can still be achieved, and mild stimulus measures are expected to be introduced [14][15]. 3.3 Zinc Fundamental Analysis 3.3.1 Zinc Ore Supply - Global zinc concentrate supply is recovering. Overseas zinc concentrate is expected to increase by about 550,000 tons this year, and domestic zinc concentrate is expected to increase by about 100,000 tons. Zinc concentrate processing fees are rising, and zinc ore imports in July exceeded expectations [28][32][33]. 3.3.2 Refined Zinc Supply - In 2025, from January to June, global refined zinc production decreased year - on - year. Domestic production increased, while overseas production decreased. In September, refined zinc production is expected to decrease by 2.62% month - on - month, and zinc ingot imports are expected to decline [38][44][45]. 3.3.3 Refined Zinc Demand - From January to June 2025, global refined zinc consumption increased year - on - year. In the overseas market, the improvement of real estate and automobile consumption is uncertain. In the domestic market, the start - up of downstream primary processing enterprises in September is expected to improve, and the export of galvanized sheets has resilience. Traditional consumption sectors such as infrastructure and real estate show different trends, and emerging consumption sectors such as new energy have both opportunities and challenges [52][59][61]. 3.3.4 Inventory - In August, LME zinc inventory decreased rapidly, and domestic social inventory increased seasonally. In September, domestic social inventory is expected to turn to destocking [85]. 3.4 Summary and Outlook - The Fed's potential rate - cut and domestic economic support policies support zinc prices. With the reduction of supply pressure and the approaching of the traditional peak demand season, zinc prices are expected to stabilize and rebound in September. Attention should be paid to the improvement of consumption [87][88].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core Views of the Report - The lead market is in a wide - range shock. The supply and demand of lead concentrate and waste batteries continue to have gaps, processing fees are under pressure to decline, and the cost side still has support. Refinery overhauls increase, the supply pressure of electrolytic lead and secondary lead weakens marginally, and demand is affected by both the boost of the new national standard and the pressure of battery exports. The supply - demand maintains a weak pattern, and the lead price should be treated with a shock mindset. It is necessary to continuously monitor the implementation of refinery overhauls and the fulfillment of demand [2][76]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Lead Market Review - In August, the main contract price of Shanghai lead showed a narrow - range weak shock. At the beginning of the month, the lead price rebounded to around 17,000 yuan/ton due to factors such as the Fed's interest - rate cut expectation, good domestic import - export data, and supply - side disturbances. After the optimistic sentiment faded, the lead price oscillated downward due to the non - fulfillment of the consumption peak season and the increase in social inventory. It then rebounded at the end of the month, with a monthly increase of 0.87% to 16,880 yuan/ton. - LME lead showed a convergent shock trend. On one hand, the weakening US dollar boosted the lead price; on the other hand, the high LME inventory and short - selling enthusiasm of speculative funds pressured the price. It closed at 1,997 US dollars/ton at the end of the month, with a monthly increase of 1.4% [7]. 3.2 Lead Fundamental Analysis 3.2.1 Lead Ore Supply Situation - **Global lead concentrate supply is slowly recovering**: From January to June 2025, the global cumulative lead concentrate output was 220.4 million tons, with a cumulative year - on - year increase of 2.16%. Overseas output was 127.4 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 1.15%, and China's output was 93 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 3.56%. It is expected that the overseas lead concentrate increment will reach about 10 million tons this year, and the domestic increment will be around 7 million tons [8][10]. - **Lead concentrate processing fees remain low, and the demand for silver concentrate imports is increasing**: In September, the average domestic lead concentrate processing fee was 450 yuan/metal ton, a month - on - month decrease of 50 yuan/metal ton; the import processing fee was - 90 US dollars/dry ton, a month - on - month decrease of 30 US dollars/dry ton. The supply of lead concentrate is tight, and it is expected that the processing fees will continue to decline. In July, the lead concentrate import volume was 122,000 tons, a year - on - year increase of 28.35%; the silver concentrate import volume was 154,200 tons, a year - on - year increase of 24.62%. It is expected that the silver concentrate import will remain at the current level [18][19]. 3.2.2 Refined Lead Supply Situation - **Global refined lead supply growth is slow**: From January to June 2025, the global refined lead output was 6.57 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 1.56%. It is predicted that the global refined lead output in 2025 will be 13.272 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 0.6% [24]. - **Refinery overhauls increase, and the electrolytic lead output in September is expected to decline**: In August, the electrolytic lead output was 324,700 tons, slightly lower than expected. It is expected that the output in September will be 320,500 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 4.24% [29]. - **The price of waste batteries is slowly falling, and secondary lead refineries are reducing production**: In August, the average price of waste batteries was 10,100 yuan/ton, a monthly decrease of 1.5%. The secondary lead output in August was 248,800 tons, lower than expected. It is expected that the output in September will be 209,900 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 16.8% [34][35]. 3.2.3 Refined Lead Demand Situation - **Global refined lead demand situation**: From January to June 2025, the global refined lead consumption was 6.549 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 2.5%. It is expected that the global refined lead demand in 2025 will increase by 1.5% to 13.19 million tons, and the supply will exceed the demand by 82,000 tons. The short - term recovery of the European and American automobile markets has uncertainty, and the boost to lead battery consumption is cautiously optimistic [48][49]. - **The peak season of lead battery production is not prosperous, and there are mixed factors in September**: In August, the lead battery production peak season did not meet expectations. In September, the new national standard for electric bicycles is implemented, which is expected to improve the demand, but the export to some Middle - Eastern countries is facing tariff increases. It is expected that the battery enterprise production will remain cautious [53]. - **The Shanghai - London ratio is not conducive to lead product imports, and the tariff increase in the Middle East is negative for starting battery exports**: In July, the refined lead export volume decreased month - on - month, and the import volume increased month - on - month. It is expected that the import volume will decline in August, and the export will remain stable. The battery export is affected by the tax increase in the Middle East, and the export volume is expected to decline [54][55]. - **Policy guidance improves the lead battery consumption outlook marginally**: In the automotive sector, the demand for lead batteries is expected to increase with the growth of vehicle ownership and the implementation of subsidy policies. In the electric bicycle sector, the new national standard and the old - for - new policy are expected to increase the lead battery demand. In the energy - storage sector, the lead battery demand also has growth potential [64][67][68]. 3.2.4 LME Maintains High Inventory, and Domestic Inventory is Mildly Reduced - In August, the LME lead inventory remained high, and it is expected to continue to increase, which will pressure the lead price. The domestic social inventory decreased slightly, and it is expected to continue to decline slowly in September [73]. 3.3 Summary and Future Outlook - The supply - demand of lead concentrate and waste batteries has gaps, and the cost side has support. The supply pressure of electrolytic lead and secondary lead is weakening, and the demand is affected by both positive and negative factors. The lead price is expected to fluctuate, and attention should be paid to the refinery overhauls and demand fulfillment [76].
